Cortical bone geometry is one of the most important components of bone strength. Excess endogenous PTH or intermittent PTH administration affects cortical bone geometry; however, the changes in cortical bone geometry in patients with primary hyperparathyroidism (pHPT) after parathyroidectomy (PTX) remain unknown.
